Hey friends, I've been bummed I couldn't make it out for any hangs for awhile and already got turned down for the january hang, but I will be going out sunday, january 1 for a quick overnight. As it stands I'm planning for zaleski. Ill be either at camp D (2nd camp) or camp H (3rd camp), haven't decided but will let you all know soon.

Hope you all can join me for a new year hike and hang.

I just might do that Chad. I'm off on the 2cnd I could swing it.

**exup** · 12-23-2011, 09:33

That would be awesome Mike. I was hoping you could make it out.

I was thinking a New Years Day bike ride the but a hang would be more fun I think.

Awesome, hope you can make it out. Lukesteg said he should be able to make it.

**Bannerstone** · 12-23-2011, 19:30

Great to Lukesteg is a likely. I think Ryan is a pretty likely as well.

Well guys, looks like a forecast low around 20* for Sunday night and winds around 20mph. Should be a good winter test.

Sad I can't make this one.

Stay warm out there.

Ok guys, I'm excited for my coldest night yet this year! As it stands it'll be Lukesteg, HamMike, Bannerstone, and myself. It's a bummer you can't make it Tendertoe. I hope to make the January hang but am doubting it as of now.

As it stands I will be hiking in sunday to Camp H/3 at the north loop. I should be to camp around 2pm. It should be a good spot. I've only been there once but it was a night hike and had to leave as the sun was coming up so I'll be excited to check this camp out a bit more. It's also the most "secluded" or the most unused. There 3 ways to hike in: Hike the south loop on through the middle loop which is about 12.5 miles. or Hike the from the trailhead and take the cutoff trail to the east side of the middle loop, to camp H which is about 4.5 miles, or take the west side of the middle loop backwards (clockwise) to be just over 5.5 miles.

I know HamMike said he might head out tomorrow, if so, the north loop itself, which is about 7 miles would make an awesome day hike. If anyone would prefer a different camp give me a heads up and we can do the camp D/2. Id just prefer to avoid the Camp C/1 since I've stayed there 15+ times this year, haha.

I've attached a great detailed map of the place at the bottom. Hopefully it works correctly uploading it. Look forward to seeing you guys!

If I can get outta here early enough I will hike into camp H get some water and go to the pine plantation saturday, then I'll come back to camp H for the sunday.
